AGVs rely on path-following systems, but increasingly demand flexibility through advanced localization and mapping.

As industrial environments evolve, OEMs face pressure to integrate sensors that enhance trajectory correction, SLAM capability, and system responsiveness.

HBK’s low-profile, ROS-compatible sensors help AGVs maintain smooth, reliable movement, even in GPS-denied zones or dynamic warehouse layouts..

In UAVs, extreme SWaP constraints require ultra-lightweight sensors without compromising data accuracy.

These platforms operate in GPS-limited or denied environments and depend on tight sensor fusion (IMU + GNSS + radar) for stable flight and accurate positioning.

HBK’s precision IMUs support flight stabilization, antenna alignment, and SLAM-based navigation for defense, surveying, or inspection use cases.

Humanoids push the boundaries of balance, perception, and adaptability.

OEMs must solve complex problems involving multi-axis motion control, force sensing, and full-body SLAM for real-world interaction.

HBK’s 6-DoF inertial sensors and multi-axis force/torque solutions enable humanoid platforms to achieve natural movement, dynamic stability, and safe collaboration—whether in research, healthcare, or service robotics.
